Ways around Possible New Anti-Gambling Laws

PO Boxes from the UK are being purchased by Australians in order to open financial facilities such as PayPal or Neteller under a UK address. The reasoning behind this is because once the gambling laws are in place neither of these sites will allow users with a registered address in Australia to top up their gambling accounts. However, with registered address in the UK under a PO Box address that also allows forwarding of mail to receive bonus codes a nd offers back to Australia allows players to at least act under guise that they are not residents of Australia.

The only problem this leaves is where to log onto the financial account to actually make the transaction. This is a problem because once again the online financial will not allow transfers from an Australian IP, or at least in the future they will no doubt have to stop this. However, nowadays it is easy to purchase an IP address from one of the many proxy companies on the internet such as www.limeporxies.com.

These IP companies allow users to choose a privately dedicated IP address that is completely anonymous. The flexibility of these IP addresses is actually pretty amazing because users can actual fact choose exactly which city they want the IP address to be located in. That dedicated IP address is then not used by any other users but the person who owns it. As long as the person owning the address always uses that address to make financial transactions and to play using their online gambling account there is no way to trace the activity.

Some players in Australia have been doing this for years anyway. They set-up their accounts due to previous anti-gambling laws being passed in Australia and some groups of players have even gone as far as purchasing their own dedicated servers abroad in order to VPN and use a remote window to gamble. The prowess and IT savvy of some players have helped those who want to gamble exercise their democratic right to the freedom to decide what is best for them when it comes to making a decision on whether they want to gamble or not, and so not be limited by a government that wants to make rules that deny players their freedom.

It does seem democratic governments are becoming more and more like dictatorships every day, but technology is giving the people the power. Here the Australian public have found a way around the government’s constant tightening grip on their freedom. Whether it is legal or not, and how the players get their money into the financial accounts via their Aussie accounts is unclear. Nor can acting against the law be condoned, but at the same time there is some kind of people power going on behind the scenes and surely there is a law somewhere that allows the people to choose what’s best for themselves.
